OverRated/UnderRated: The Swingle Singers



These guys were a feature of my childhood and I was reminded of them whilst watching Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

They were the forerunner of the a capella groups and those curious people who can make noises into microphones that turn them into one-man drum machines.

What do you think? OverRated or UnderRated? I can't make up my mind.

UnderRated. I think it's really funny :) we did a lot of the type of work in drama so much fun!

Now that's a blast from the past!

They were technically brilliant but always suffered from looking a bit too pleased with themselves when they were on the telly.
